The trigger tab is used to define how and when a service is triggered to run and synchronise data:
Two trigger types are available:
Trigger schedule options are used to schedule the associated service to run at a specified frequency and/or time. Here, you can use intuitive selection options to define your requirements or - if you are familiar with regular expressions - use advanced options to build your own expression:
Notes to help you use these settings are below:
| # | Name | Summary |
|---|---|---|
1 | Preset | Use this option to select a predefined time period (e.g. every 2 hours). Even if you don't see the exact period that you'd like, choose something similar and then update the . |
2 | Advanced | If you are familiar with regular expressions, you can select this option to activate the and enter your required expression directly. When an expression is entered in this way, you'll notice that the selection fields below update to match the expression. If you are NOT familiar with regular expressions, don't worry! You can simply ignore this field and continue building your schedule using selection options. |
3 | Expression | With the selected, you can enter a regular expression directly. Otherwise, this field updates automatically as you make schedule selections. |
4 | Minutes, hours, days | By default, these fields are set to reflect whatever is selected. You can change these as needed. |
5 | Months & days of week | By default, all months and all days of the week are selected (so the service would run every day of the week, every month of the year). You can check/uncheck these fields as needed. |
6 | Updated schedule | This field updates automatically, showing any selections as a regular expression - it cannot be changed manually. |
7 | Summary | A summary if your schedule settings is displayed in readable text form, so you can confirm that your selections are correct. |
Trigger webhook options are used to trigger the associated service to run when a defined webhook receives events.
